CK, Swash Designs bikes are mostly white metals. There are 1/35th scale but cost a bomb. Did you the dio on Swash Design website? It nice to have a lady biker on the Triumph instead of the normal soldiers for dio.

CK, Merry Christmas to you also. Still gonna shop for X'mas present at MH tomorrow?

Kenny Triumph looks great with or without the blond. Of course, it will look even better if it was me on it.

As for you Shairon, the teh tarik ain't gonna be enough. As the VC said, "GI You Die, You Die"

CK, perhaps your last figure sculpting training would help to make a 1/35th CK on Triumph. Is that a good idea minus the blond?

Well Gentlemen, Amorama may have a Group Build but Kaki Model Malaysia is even better. We had a Group Buy. Highly entertaining but of course all of us are slightly poorer with Kenny leading the group in Group Buy.

Talking about my preciousss while I'm not around again. Actually because I've been talking so much about it the Home Ministry actually offered to buy it.

This may sound crazy but I'm still looking for a bike at 1/35 of course. Since buying the 50 % off Kirin resin figs I tried fitting one of them on my DKW 350 but alas the handle was a bit short as he was meant to hold a Zundapp handlebar. The details on the Kirin kit are very good except the fit is rather poor. Since I've never built a Kirin before is the poor fit characteristic of Kirin?

After working on resin for the second time its very, very susah to go back to my poor plastic figs. Besides the Triumph I'm now starting to dream resin figs. Only a Gen 2 Fallschirmjager set can save me now.

CK, you can ask the main forum about the quality of kirin kits. i also never have hands on experience with kirin.
No CK, i think not only the gen2 figs can save u, alpine miniatures also can la
i hope this hurt a bit... hehe




with 2 head ..

Tak sakit pun! Anyway where's the challenge if the model is so well sculpted that you can't go wrong painting. Must resist, must resist, must resist.

BTW has anybody seen Italeri 1/35 Zundapp & BMW set locally (has both bikes in 1 set). Kenny does your swap list todate include this set or any other resin figs, not that I'm that desperate for resin, must resist, must resist.......

I will keep an eye for it, Beachbum. Somehow I can smell one Tamiya kit in town. Can't remember where was it the last I saw it.

I was at MPH yesterday, browsing the model magazines. FYI, Military Modelcraft NOV issue features Swash Design Triumph. Beachbum, check out the details Leonardo has added on the bike besides the blonde.
